Babbages Difference Engine #2
What a treat to see a working Babbage Difference Engine, shown at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View this weekend.
The “engine” was never built in Victorian times, but now there are two of them one in London and the other, known as #2, is, for now, in Mountain View to be on display for the next year. They’ll run it twice a week, for visitors to watch its elegant workings.
